Constitution Test

The Constitution Test will take place on Dec. 18 and 19 (depending on your class). I will hand out the study questions 1 week before and no sooner, no exceptions. If you will be leaving before the test date it is your responsibility to see me to make arrangements to take the test before or after you leave. Note: If you take the test after the break you will not have extra time to prepare.

Benchmark

Your benchmark is scheduled for either 10/23 or 10/24. (This was assigned on 10/16 and 10/17 which has given you 8 full days to prepare.) You will be writing on 1 of 4 essay questions which I will assign on those days. Please make sure your computers are charged and with you if I decide to let you type, along with paper and a black or blue pen.

I am available every morning for questions, and do not email me your questions.

Remember, you cannot have prewritten notes or essays.

I will not accept any excuses for missing the test unless I receive a parent contact before to inform me.
